"Bo Bichette and the New York Mets agreed Friday to a $126 million US, three-year contract, two people familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press. Sources also confirmed to ESPN of the agreement. The people spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the deal was subject to a successful physical. CBC Sports has not independently confirmed the reports."
"He would receive $47 million for one year and $89 million for two years, one of the people said. The deal does not contain any deferred money and Bichette gets a full no-trade provision. A two-time All-Star shortstop, Bichette hit 18 home runs and 94 RBIs for the Blue Jays in 2025. He homered off Shohei Ohtani in Game 7 of the World Series."
